In this weekly virtual group, participants will be able to listen to the Safe and Sound protocol at their own pace. The benefit of this is co-regulation. Our nervous systems respond to each other's, and listening to the SSP can activate in our systems. It's what we want. This group is a casual and safe way to practice the rise and fall in our systems, and progress through the SSP. For more information on the SSP go to www.whatisthessp.com. This group is not approved for insurance coverage, and a membership applies for using SSP.
I am also qualified to deliver the Safe and Sound Protocol, an audio based treatment helpful for overstimulation and chronic trauma responses.

Going through a high conflict divorce (usually code for abusive relationship and post separation abuse) can be very isolating. Especially when you're trying to take care of your kids. Friends, family, and community (even mental health professionals!) are often woefully uninformed about high conflict divorce and abuse and why you may end up in family court. When you're dealing with narcissistic abuse it can be brutal. Talk to others of any gender who get it in this facilitated 10 session virtual support group. Free 15 minute screening required to join prior to Feb. 18. Email emergebrave@gmail.com.

When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
